Silver Price Forecast: XAG bulls test $70 as rally extends
Silver prices rally for the third straight day, up more than 2% and, for the week, gains over 7.40%, as a firm US Dollar is not an excuse for precious metals buyers, who are choosing flight-to-quality over haven demand due to the difficult US fiscal stance. The XAG/USD trades at $69.50, after reaching a high of $70.02.
XAG/USD Price Forecast: Technical Outlook
From a technical perspective, Silver’s uptrend remains in place, with traders eyeing a breakout above $70.00. Once achieved, they will set their sight on the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at $72.05. A breach of it would expose the psychologically significant $75.00 level, which becomes the next area of interest.
Momentum stays positive, evidenced by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) staying above 50 and nearing overbought levels.
On the downside, XAG/USD's first support is the 100-day SMA at $68.47. Below lies the August 20 low of $65.64, ahead of challenging the August 19 swing low of $62.19, followed by the 50-day SMA at $61.35.

Crude oil is "coming back", but refined oil is "not coming back"; the global refining gap is widening.
According to Goldman Sachs, global refined oil exports have declined by about 6 million barrels per day year-on-year, with the Gulf region and Russia contributing three-quarters of the decrease. Unlike crude oil, which can be rerouted, damaged refineries cannot be relocated, and the Gulf region's refined oil exports have only recovered to 40% of pre-war levels. Goldman Sachs expects global refinery utilization rates to recover only by the second half of 2027; based on this, it has more than doubled its forecast for diesel profit margins in 2027.
